Banana Peanut Butter Sushi for Kids

This recipes works well for breakfast and/or entertaining children.

As an aunt of many nieces and nephews, when I babysit more than 2 of them at once, I like to make a variety of food and let them share. This dish is perfect for sharing.









Ingredients:

  • 1 (8″) soft whole wheat tortilla
  • 1 banana
  • 1T raisins
  • cinnamon
  • honey
  • 2T peanut butter (recommend Smucker’s reduced fat)

Instructions:

1. Spread a thin layer of peanut butter across the entire tortilla, leaving about 1/4″ gap at the edge. Shake cinnamon on top of the peanut butter. Bend/mush the banana in an attempt to straighten it and place in the middle of the tortilla. Roll up the tortilla tightly and leave seam-side down on the plate.

2. Cut into 8 pieces with a small pairing knife. Drizzle honey across the top in a zig-zag pattern so that some lands on the plate too. Place the currants on top of the roll and shake cinnamon on top.

3. For kids… I don’t recommend the chopsticks! Too dangerous!

Nutritional Information:
If you use Smuckers’ Reduced Fat Creamy Peanut Butter, the fat intake is only 12g per serving with 8 grams of protein.
